Microneedling

Stimulate your skin's natural renewal process and address everything from fine lines and acne scars to uneven texture with minimal downtime and results that keep improving.

Find Your Location
Aesthetics - Microneedling

What Does Microneedling Treat?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that works with your body, not against it. Using a medical-grade device called SkinPen, the treatment creates controlled micro-channels in the skin's surface, triggering your body's natural healing response. The result is a boost in collagen and elastin production: the proteins responsible for keeping skin smooth, firm, and youthful-looking.

As we age, collagen production gradually slows, and signs of this change appear in fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, and dull skin. Microneedling helps reverse that process by giving your skin a reason to regenerate. Because the treatment works at the cellular level, it's effective across a wide range of concerns and compatible with all skin tones.

Goals Addressed
Soften fine lines and wrinkles
Reduce the appearance of acne scars and surgical scars
Improve skin texture and tone
Minimize the look of enlarged pores
Address sun damage and hyperpigmentation
Diminish stretch marks
Support overall skin health and radiance
Pairs Well With
PRP
Add platelet-rich plasma to enhance results and support deeper skin repair.
Chemical Peels
Targets surface-level texture and tone to complement microneedling's deeper collagen stimulation.
BBL (BroadBand Light)
Addresses pigmentation, redness, and sun damage on the surface, while microneedling repairs beneath the skin.
WHAT TO EXPECT

What Happens at Your Appointment?

Every microneedling session begins with a brief check-in to assess the treatment area and make sure your skin is ready. Here's how it typically unfolds:

1

Consultation

Before your first treatment, your provider reviews your skin concerns, goals, and health history to determine whether microneedling is the right fit and how it should be customized for your skin.
2

Treatment

A topical numbing cream is applied to ensure your comfort. Once your skin is ready, your provider uses SkinPen to make small, precise passes across the treatment area. The device creates thousands of microchannels in the skin. Most sessions take around 30 minutes.
3

You're Done

There's no downtime required. Your skin will appear flushed, similar to a mild sunburn, for the first day or two, after which most patients return to their normal routine. Your provider will send you home with guidance on caring for your skin after treatment.

Your Experience With Microneedling

Results from microneedling are gradual by design. Because the treatment works by prompting your skin to rebuild itself, improvements deepen over weeks as new collagen matures. Most patients notice a visible difference within one to two weeks of their first session, with optimal results developing over three to four months.

The number of sessions recommended will depend on your specific concerns. Many patients achieve meaningful improvement in one to four treatments, while more significant scarring or texture concerns may benefit from additional sessions. Your provider will build a plan tailored to your skin and goals from the start.

Timeline at a Glance

Days 1–3
Mild redness and minor swelling are normal. Avoid makeup, chemical exfoliants, and direct sun exposure while your skin begins to heal.
Days 5–7
Redness fades. Skin may feel slightly dry or appear flaky as surface-level healing wraps up. Use provider-recommended skincare.
Days 10–14
Skin takes on a smoother, more refreshed appearance. Early texture improvement is often visible by this point.
Months 3–4
Collagen remodeling continues beneath the surface. Pores appear smaller, scarring looks less pronounced, and overall tone becomes more even.

They were amazing. Absolutely a 10/10 experience for me. They made me feel heard, they explained things in a way that made sense, and showed me a clear path to recovery that I didn't think was possible. In addition to this, I had a medical episode at the end of my appointment, and they all did an amazing job at helping me and not making me feel bad about what happened. They are all so sweet, professional, and I can tell they care about their patients. If the doctor, nurses, and student doctor/nurse that was there is reading this. Thank you! You all did amazing and I will be getting some help about the medical episode I had, and I feel way better now. Thank you! I will 100% be coming back to North Atlanta Dermatology at Buford again!

After years of mediocre dermatological care, I found Azalea Skin Treatment Center in Garner, NC. In just months, my skin has improved after years of minimal improvements. Instead of saying, "Yeah, you're fine, come back in 2 years," when I have continuing skin issues, Azalea has provided needed and continued care specifically for my needs with fast improvements. Instead of being hurried through my appointment, Megan Kain takes the time to actively listen and interact with me while providing valuable insight and information.My aging skin needs quality care, and Azalea/Megan Kain are providing it. I am very thankful.

I went to Carolina Skin Care in Pinehurst for MOHS surgery to remove a basal cell carcinoma on my forehead. Dr. Malone and her staff treated me like a king.

You don’t feel rushed through your visit and they listen to any questions you have and walk you through your treatment options. I’d tried a few other places before, I always felt like I was being rushed through the appointments and unheard. They always wanted to kinda just write me a topical for my psoriasis and send me out the door instead of actually talking to me about what’s working or not. Trust me, it’s worth the wait to get that new patient appointment.

You know those medical practictioners who run their office poorly, the waits are long, and the staff treat you like you've invaded their personal space and you're dumb for being there? That is NOT this place. 2 days ago, I found a spot of concern on my arm. I got an appointment within 2 days. I walked in and waited max 10 minutes. My PA (Anjana Patel) listened to my concern, did a couple of feel tests, thought it was probably nothing but since it was a little funny, she biopsied it on the spot. Then she asked if I wanted a whole skin check since I never had had one, which she performed with compassion and competence. She was amazing, and her assistant, Grace, was wonderful too. The office staff was similarly kind and got me in and out quickly. It's obviously a nice place to work, because the office staff was smiling and joking with each other while also performing their tasks with professionalism. Could not recommend more highly. 10/10.

What an outstanding experience this was. It is always alarming when you hear the word cancer. That strikes terror. This facility is just wonderful. They made me feel comfortable. listened, provided all the information regarding the procedure. My cancer is gone and now the healing begins. My suggestion is preparation is everything. Make sure you have all that you need for the first 24 to 48 hrs. Ask questions, write down your own questions. do exactly as prescribed and you will be great. Dr. Monte, his assistants, the front desk are consummate professionals. The waiting area is clean and inviting along with a coffee station. My word to everyone. WEAR YOUR SUNBLOCK. no tanning beds. and contact them if ever needed.

I highly recommend Dr. Zook. He is very confident in his physician expertise and doesn't discriminate against minorities. I noticed that he has a very diverse staff working under his leadership, which is inspiring. He is not afraid to care for obese patients. Very kind and thorough when explaining things to you.

I can't thank this office enough I had to pay out of pocket to get diagnosed and to get a biopsy and the rates were very reasonable for someone with no insurance I'm extremely thankful for that. I was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma Dr Johnson and his team did a fabulous job of treating it it was a painless procedure done reasonably quick and I feel very good about it I'm extremely thankful for Dr Johnson and his team. I would recommend this place to a family member or friend they are fabulous. Good communication aggressive with getting insurance situated and really good about getting an appointment as soon as possible

I have been going to this practice for several years now. Dr. Giblin is who I see primarily and he is very knowledgeable and discusses treatment options very clearly, and makes sure the patient’s questions and concerns are addressed. I have also used Dr. Krivda who performed a skin cancer surgery for me. He did an excellent job and you cannot see any evidence of a scar. All the staff are friendly, the office scheduling process is easy and minimal wait time once you arrive for your appointment. I would recommend them to anyone.

ADDRESSING TOP MICRONEEDLING CONCERNS

Your Microneedling Questions, Answered

Most patients tolerate the treatment well with a topical numbing cream applied beforehand. You may feel a mild vibration or warming sensation during the session, but significant discomfort is uncommon.

Most sessions take approximately 30 minutes, not including time for the numbing cream to take effect. Plan for about an hour from arrival to checkout.

That depends on your goals. Many patients see noticeable improvement after one to four sessions. Concerns like moderate acne scarring or more significant texture issues may benefit from additional treatments. Your provider will outline a recommended plan during your initial consultation.

Treatments can be safely repeated every four to six weeks, allowing adequate time for your skin to heal and begin producing new collagen between sessions.

For the first few days following your session, avoid direct sun exposure, makeup, chemical exfoliants (like retinoids and AHAs), and activities that cause excessive sweating. Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions based on your skin.

Yes. Microneedling is effective and safe for all skin tones, which makes it a versatile option for patients who may not be candidates for certain laser treatments.

Absolutely. Microneedling pairs especially well with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), medical-grade skincare, chemical peels, Aerolase, and Tetra PRO. Your provider can recommend a combination approach if it aligns with your goals.

Standard microneedling stimulates collagen production through controlled micro-injuries. Adding PRP delivers concentrated growth factors directly into those micro-channels, supporting deeper repair. PRP is particularly beneficial for acne scarring and hair loss. Ask your provider whether the addition makes sense for your skin.

Initial improvements in texture and tone are often noticeable within one to two weeks. Full results continue to develop over three to four months as the remodeling process completes.

Minimal. Most patients experience redness similar to a mild sunburn for one to three days, with possible minor swelling or dryness as healing progresses. The majority return to their regular schedule within 24 to 48 hours.
